The cover of the New York Times Magazine August 6, 2026, was bright red. The title, ” Is Everything Inflammation?” pretty dramatic. “Hmmm,” I muttered, “That sounds familiar,” checking my WholeHealth Chicago files. Yep, there it was, September 22, 2013, “The Evidence is in: Inflammation Shortens Your Life.” Scooped the NYT again! So, this Health […]

We are thrilled to bring our services to the western suburbs!
We are a healthcare practice that strives to integrate the best of conventional and complementary medicine in a caring and healing environment. We believe that both health and disease are functions of physical, emotional, nutritional, and spiritual influences. Many health issues are rooted in a patient’s personal biography – the story of your life – and are most effectively treated by addressing root causes rather than symptoms alone.

Health Tips
You’d never know how many millions of women were affected by one single very flawed medical report released in July 2002 called the “Women’s Health Initiative (WHI).” It stated, loud, clear, and wrongly that hormone replacement was very dangerous; the breast cancer and heart attacks risks were too high. DOCTORS: “Do not prescribe hormones.” What […]
You’re tired of being overweight, and you’ve been a victim of the tyranny of the last ten, twenty pounds or much more as long as you can remember. You’ve tried everything. You’ve been dieting and nothing happens that ever lasts except hunger. You exercise to exhaustion, lose some pounds and gain them back. No matter […]
Well, times have changed! Twenty years ago, when I first began writing about Lyme Disease, the Centers for Disease Control had dismissed it with a “no big deal” attitude, estimating 30,000 cases annually, mainly in New England. By 2025, we’re up to 475,000 cases a year, and had some knowledge about the so-called “co-infections,” Bartonella, […]
I recently read that 16% of Americans (approximately 54 million of us) are taking antidepressants. This got Secretary Kennedy’s knickers all in a twist. He announced that the U.S. faces a “dependency crisis” because we’re overmedicated and should begin “deprescribing” of antidepressants by supervised tapering. Depressed and anxious patients need to be offered alternatives like […]
From what I’ve been told by the 10-15% of WholeHealth Chicago patients who are (or have been on) on the conveyor belt of hormone injection/surgical procedure stops on each of the highly competitive Fertility Centers, it must be an emotionally draining experience. You arrive feeling <fill in some emotion, like anxiety, hope>. She is <worried? […]
